Black eye Blogging: Day Four

Slight but notable changes. I’m getting bored with it myself, though.

I’m thinking it would be interesting to have purple skin. However, I’d want an easier way to accomplish it.

For some odd reason, I have a hankering for plums. Maybe it’s backwards sympathetic magic.

So when you are out in public, do people give Joe the evil eye?

OH yeah. He wants a shirt that says “I DIDN’T DO IT!”

Fetching, huh? I dunno, I keep seeing some hybrid of clown and raccoon.

I like it.

Very luckily, very early on in our relationship, Miss Patsy accidentally whacked me in the face with a board, then burst out laughing:  “I’m not laughing because I hit you in the head with a board, I’m laughing at the expression you had on your face when I hit you.”

After that, whenever I laughed at anything that she didn’t find particularly funny, I would pull her quote out of my pocket.  It’s served me well.

I have a skateboarder’s helmet for bicycle riding, because who the fuck needs to be aerodynamic?

Hahahaha, poor Joe… You know, I didn’t even think about that.
I must say Ron, you got yourself good.
Very pretty shade of purple… At least you’re smiling.
Ash is proud of her “bad ass daredevil” aunt… hehe

Ok, maybe you need a t-shirt that says “All sports eventually become extreme sports!”.

We had a great view of a trampoline act from our hotel window the other day.  Not only were they doing the “usual” impossible things, at one point they were wearing skis and skateboards while jumping.  [shakes head] Sadly, we’d seen the dolphins at the aquarium the day before and I kept expecting the MC to toss the guys a fish…

You might be able to hide it with lots of mascara and eyeliner, go for the emo/rock look!
